We’re all on a journey – some of us have a good inkling where their path is
leading them, others have a vague idea (generally they live day to day) and
some, like me, are on a quest – searching for something significant at the end
of the trail. In my case, it’s the nirvana of Leadership – something which will
enable me to share my knowledge of ideal models and research suggesting the
type of ideas which will develop within my clients the ability to achieve the
highest level of success in their business and personal lives.

The quest, be it similar to mythical historical literature or a long arduous
search for something missing in life, is no simple ‘walk in the park’. It may
come with some glory at the end; however, it’s the experiences gained
throughout the journey that will leave an indelible mark on life’s path.

My leadership quest continues and whilst I’ve arrived at many destinations
and the peak has been awesomely close to what I’d imagined, there is always the
desire to move forward and seek out the next
best thing, and this occurred only last
week. I completed a week long learning program entitled ‘Thought Leaders’( you
can check it out at www.mattchurch.com) which helped me identify a new path
(process) to follow, enabling me to define my delivery of a quality Leadership
Quest Practice.

If you’re on a learning journey, seeking out a training program (which was
my choice) is one option for development. Another option could be seeking out a
Mentor, someone who has already reached their potential and can advise you and
take you along the path toward achieving your quest. Perhaps volunteering to
take on a challenging task or activity within your role could be the answer to
gaining additional management skills. Whichever path you take, my Leadership Quest
Guide offers ideas on how to approach the journey.

I am always looking to challenge my thinking and I can't help myself - I am a compulsive reader. During 2016-2017, I challenging myself to read 52 books in 52 weeks - I constantly had a book or my iPad in my hand!

During the 2017-2018 financial year I continued to share my leadership thoughts from my not so regular reading and you can still take advantage of my challenge and read my 52 book reviews.
